Haunting Beachfront Playground by Da7swima

In 1954, I was a 10 years old tomboy who likes to play rough games with boys and never afraid of anything. I lived in a small countryside town on the west side of the island on Kauai which is Kekaha-"ThePlace". My house was on the beachfront. I have many childhood playmates from next door neighbor &...

Friendly Ghosts At The Hospital by Da7swima

In the year 2000, I encountered Chicken skin experiences. I was a Secretary in the Employee Health Department at The Queen's Medical Center in Honolulu. One day I had to retrieve a former employee record which is in storage on Tower 6th floor of the main hospital. The records are stored in boxes. U...

Freaky Experience by wrh1969

This story happened when I was around 11 years old; on Oahu in Hawaii. My family and I lived in base housing on Wheeler Air Force Base. One day I was riding my skateboard around the neighborhood and I noticed a crowd of kids and a military police car in front of a house. As I approached the house ...

Hawaiian Ghosts In Military Housing by silverthane61

My wife and I spent five years in Hawaii while I served in the armed forces. We lived in the officers' quarters and shared a tenement-style four-plex building with three other military families. The apartments had two stories, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and utility room, living room and ...

Military Ghost Story by BaptizedInFire34

My name is Mike. I'm a US Army veteran and this is a true story of events which occurred during my time stationed in Hawaii. I am writing it to the best of my memory of the occurrences. The exact address and community name have been omitted as it is not my intention to negatively impact the housing ...

A Staticky, Shimmery, Flashing Something by Mainlander

About twenty years ago, when we lived in Navy housing out on Oahu, Hawaii, my daughter and I experienced something that still haunts me. Honestly, I'm not sure what it was. In that, I'm not sure if it was a ghost. At the time we, my husband, our two daughters and I were living in Navy housing. I...

Terrifying Girl With Doll by OGsan

Let me preface my experience by establishing that before this, I was never a believer in ghosts or the paranormal. Since I am currently Atheist, I used to think that if spiritual elements were man-made, then certainly ghost experiences were also figments of the imagination right? Enter a late dri...

Visited By Mama Cat Of Our Adopted Kittens by jewel_brite

Our black and white cat Lovey was hit by a car near our home. We saw her still moving in the street, but by the time we parked in the driveway and rushed to her, she had passed. It was so distressing and from the look on her face, she had died in great pain. One week later, through a good friend, we...

My Hawaiian Grandmother And My Supernatural Life by kamalei86

My Grandmother, or tutu as we say in Hawaii, was the center of our entire family. Around 50 close relatives, and 250 extended relatives to be exact. She has always been the center of my life and there's not a single day that goes by that I don't think of her, even 17 years after her death. She was o...

Hawaii Ghost by MikeO

While in Hawaii on vacation, we were staying at Westin Vacation Villas, north tower room, Room 7632. We were staying in a room with our friend, who was staying in the other room in a sofa bed. In the middle of the night I got thirsty, so I went searching for a bottle of water. I thought I had a ...

My Hawaiian Ghost Stories by HawaiiFemme

A few of my cousins told me this story: In the 1980s, when they were children living in a Kaneohe apartment, they had a Ouija board that they played with. One day, they were hanging out at home together and one of their Barbies got up and started walking across the floor! My cousins threw the Ouija ...

The Haunted Bed Frames by ghoststorieshawaii2

A friend offered a white wicker bed frame set to me for free. At the time I lived in a very remote mountain in Hawaii, up in the elevation of 5500 ft. The house I rented was built on a hilly side, with the upstairs living area off the ground at least 15 feet. I had my partner at the time to go a...

It Done Or Is It? by SalesaSeiuli

It was back in 2007, I was only seventh grade when I first experience a demonic vibe. So my mom was telling my siblings and I about the aikus (ghosts) in Samoa just to scare us to sleep and how the two sisters took our grand uncle. I would say their names but these names are never to be mentione...

The Drowning Girl by alldatassstera

About 6 years ago, when I was 11, one night at my grandmother's house in the big island of Hawaii, me, my sister and two of my younger cousins were all sleeping in the living room watching movies. We all fell asleep and all the lights were off except one right by the TV stand. The TV stand was l...

A Gift From A Ghost? by jynnantonnix

I'm not sure whether this exactly qualifies as a ghost story, but it's something that I have never been able to explain, and takes place in an area which does have more than its share of paranormal experiences. I'm a Navy wife of going on 30 years, and have spent a number of years, on and off, i...

She Follows Me by naokismommy

Where do I begin? Since I was a little girl living in Oklahoma, strange occurrences happened. I have parents that would always tell me ghosts weren't real and so I eventually excused occurrences and ignored them, or at least tried to. From what I can remember it started with an old antique piano...

The Coral Hotel by wolfavera

This happened two years ago when I was staying in Waikiki at the Royal Hawaiian with my family. This isn't a large haunting like many of the other stories on this website. Though, I find that it is wise to share this story. In case anyone else happens to come in contact with spirits in this hotel. ...

Giggling Ghost Children On Kauai by Kauaianjuggalo

I just found out something that really messed with my head. I never told anyone about it and almost forgot it happened until I randomly found this article online. I was driving home from a friend's house around three or four am. Out of nowhere I heard what sounded like children giggling in my bac...

Cloud Of Dispersion by WAallday360

About two years ago, I believe it was in the fall, I was trying to fall asleep. I closed my eyes for a bit and all of a sudden everything became silent. No wind, no sprinklers nothing. I opened my eyes and in the corner next to my door I saw a figure. It was blue and then I focused my eyes and i...

The Green House In Lihue by qohw2

I moved to Lihue with my family from the small town of Koloa. It was me (9 years old), my little sister (1 year), my mom and my step-dad. The house isn't isolated, it is in the middle of a little housing area and we were surrounded by homes. The house was built on a hill so there had to be stilt...

Towel Trick by 4d

Aloha, if would like to go straight to my story please feel free to skip this paragraph and the next paragraph. I'd like to start my experience by giving a little background about myself first. I have been away from YGS for a while now because of family, life, and other busy things, but I wanted to ...

Residual Energy Or Something Else? by shellie1981

Many years ago I used to live in Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. I grew up there, met a man in the military, got married, and moved into base housing. I was 19. I made friends with another military spouse, as we were both avid animal lovers and I was helping her raise and care for her rather large me...

Ghostly Hawaiian Guitar by shellie1981

I am from Hawaii. I grew up on the island of Oahu. In Hawaii, belief in the paranormal is extremely commonplace and accepted. Now I live in Florida and I always notice how uncomfortable people are when discussing any unexplained or supernatural phenomena. So I am sharing my experiences here to an au...

Is It Following Me? Is This Okay? by Lokelani_x

I live in a valley of Hawaii and these are believed to be very spirited because of all the battles and ali'i and mo'i (chiefs and royalty) that lived here in acient times and also just because hawaiians are spiritual in general and attract spirits I guess. I live with just my dad. He had a girlfrien...

An Odd Ability Of Strengths And A Follower by hollowveins

I have always had spiritual sense. Just able to sense when they're near. I see them on occasion, but I do things so I won't have too. I always lived in Arizona, where throughout my life I saw shadow people. My first encounter that I can recall was when I was 7, I saw a man with some fancy hat stan...

Wife Possessed By Mother's Ghost? by hunterfx21

First a little background on my wife's family: My wife moved from Korea to Hawaii with her dad and sister about 5 years ago, soon after her mom died of cancer (she was in her 40's/50's). It wasn't a peaceful death - the mom seemed to have lots of regrets concerning her daughters. Her parents loved e...

The Bag Of Bread And Flower Pen by 4d

One March evening, after dinner, my wife and I rested in the living room enjoying a show on T.V. While we sat, from the corner of my eye, I saw a dark shadow moving freely around in the kitchen. So, I turn to my wife and tell her "I just saw some movement in the kitchen, a large shadow by the sink."...

Experiences In The Complex by LeEarlPearl

Since that day I finally told you all my story, more and more things have been happening. It somewhat involves the shadow that my dad had seen, and a few other things which are completely unrelated to that topic! I don't know if it's just me imagining things, or if I might have some sort of sixth se...

It's Time To Go by SheWolf

This is just a little thing that happened this morning. Not scary, but a little unsettling. The night before, I stayed up late watching some episodes of "Planet Earth" (a nature documentary) on T.V. It was around 1am when I went to bed, so you can imagine I did not want to wake up early (I've alr...

Two Dark Apparitions In One Day by cyclo8999

My fascination in the paranormal began when I was, eight years old, alone in the cottage during the afternoon. Out of nowhere appeared a large-dark apparition that floated still-like at a short distance from me near the front door. I was immediately frozen in fear by staring at something I did not u...

A Special Visit From Dad On His Birthday by weezyluva808

Just a little back ground before I start my story, I have 4 brothers and 1 sister. I and my sister were very close to our dad growing up. He spoiled us rotten! We lived with him on and off through out the years due to my parents divorce. The last time we lived with him was right before he passed. He...

The First Of Many by SoulSeeker

It was a clear moonlit night in Oahu Honolulu, HI in the year 1994. I was about 5yrs old and little did I know that this experience would be The First of Many. Every night I would get up around midnight to get a drink of water or use the restroom. I've never had much fear of the dark as most chil...

Touched... By What? by 808mama

My story is very brief and it happened a few years ago. My uncle and his family who had been living with us for a couple of years, just bought a two story house in Ewa. The story was that a family of 4 lived there before my uncle and family did. A mother, father, daughter and grandmother who were ve...

My Very First Encounter by iwanttobelieve808

This is one of the earliest memories I had. When I was a small boy, my father used to take me around with him whenever he paid a girlfriend a visit. It's sleazy I know; he would just leave me alone while he engaged in sexual relations with this woman or that woman. On this occasion, he was paying a ...

The Things That Haunt Me by iwanttobelieve808

I've had various supernatural experiences my entire life, but for the purpose of this post, I've chosen to write about the most recent. Before I begin, I'd just like to say that I've read many of the posts on this site, and feel that my own experiences are somewhat benign (but no less disturbing) th...

Ghost Hunting In Heiau by 4d

I have been involved with a group that promotes spiritual awareness for the last year and it has been amazing! I have learned so much during this time about myself and ALL those around me. We take field trips, we do talks, we help people understand, and we seek haunted places in Hawaii. We had re...

The Girl Of My Dreams by 4d

It has been a while since I have been back to this site. My daughter was born and all of my attention was placed on family! She is indeed a special girl to me and I have loved watching her grow. I wrote a story previously on this site before we, wife and I, knew what we were having and it explains h...

Things That Go Thump by k_c

So this story starts off on Halloween, this is not made up. This actually happened to me. I was about 6 and I was waiting for my mom to come home. Now I was not alone, I was actually with my grandma, and brother. But my brother had left to go to the movies with his friends, and my grandma went in he...

A Girl Named Abigail? by tmeyer09

Growing up I experienced a lot of weird things happen to me, things I couldn't really logically explain. The first incidents I remember took place in Oahu, Hawaii. I lived on the Marine Corps base with my family. I was in third grade when it all started. I hated the house we lived in. I never felt s...

The Old Goat's Head &the Visitors by SheWolf

In my room, I had an old wild goat's head that hung above my bed where I slept. I had always been a nature lover, but I always loved hunting also, so I decided to hang it there. It had never given me any trouble, until one odd week in the spring. One night, I had a strange dream, I was in my room, a...

The Pacific Palisades Prankster by marvel

Growing up in Hawaii I have been exposed to many stories of superstitions and ghost. Being that Hawaii is the ethnic melting pot of the world all the stories differ from ethnicity to ethnicity. My Portuguese grandmother would tell stories of fetsedas, Portuguese witches that would claim childre...

An Ancient Protector by 4d

I went to an art museum on the island of O'ahu for study one day. I was there with a group of other students in my class at around 8:00am, awaiting the docent to take us on a tour. The morning was cool and the air was filled with excitement. My classmates were grinning in anticipation to see differe...

The House In Makakilo by MYsT3RY08

So there's this really big house down in Lower Makakilo, but the owner divided it into two. The house was on Leiole St. Well we had been living in this house for maybe three months I think when the following events happened. One night when everybody was sleeping, my brother woke up and saw a tall...

Living Room Moments 2 by 4d

My wife and I moved into a new home a few years ago. We were happy that we had our own place to rest with out having our family interrupting us every five seconds to do something. It wasn't our family that we had to worry about bothering us any longer. For the first few months everything was grea...

Living Room Moments by 4d

My family is very close. When I was young we would spend much time together talking, eating, playing games, singing and dancing, and planning in our living room. I have several stories to share that have occurred right there in my old living room. When my family first moved into this house it was...

Life And Death In A Dream by 4d

I don't know about you, but I've heard that when you dream, the dream is in black and white. I have very vivid dreams, in color. Some so real I can smell and touch things. They play out like a drama, very clear, very story like. I hardly do dream, but when they happen they are very closely related t...

Singing Ghost by 4d

I had a job as a parking attendant once, and I wouldn't finish work until around 12:30-1:30am. Nothing unusual would happen at work. Instead it would happen on my drive home. I would be pretty tired by the time my shift was over. I needed to find different things to keep my mind active so I would...

Mynah Healing by 4d

Last week was very difficult for me. My wife traveled to Hawai'i (Big Island) to compete in the "Merry Monarch" hula festival. When I'm alone I tend to be visited by many unexplainable things, which I first believed was just paranoia. Since I became part of a unity I noticed that many strange things...

My Childhood Home & Voices That Call To Me by 4d

I remember moving into my, then, new childhood home when I was around 8 years old. I was super thrilled because it was so much bigger than our last home and it even had a front yard and a good sized back yard to play in. The strange thing is that when we moved in I started to hear voices. My gran...

Naked Ghost On My Front Porch by ghostseer

A few nights ago, I experienced something very strange. I had just entered the living room from the stairwell leading down from the third floor. Coming around the corner, I saw something out of the corner of my eye. A NAKED creature was standing on my front porch, and it surprised me. It's been a...

Ghosts Outside The Old Church by ghostseer

A couple days prior to Easter, I drove past an old Catholic Church. It's a beautiful building with lots of charm, but the parking lot is shared by another denomination. The second church sits almost directly behind the first, and for some odd reason, I found myself staring to the right of both bu...

Working With Ghosts by 4d

I worked as a kind of early morning restock clerk at this supermarket near where I lived. My first day on the job I arrived about 25 minutes early to impress the boss. When I got there it was dark and apparently the only other person working was the security guard at the back entrance. He let me in ...

Dreaming Together Of The Shadow Man by 4d

Back in 1994 I had begun a relationship with the love of my life. She would hang at my house and I would cruise at hers always during the day. Our parents were pretty trusting of us so they allowed us to spend nights sleeping over each other homes, but not in the same room. The first night she staye...

Standing Around The Grave by ghostseer

Today, I went to pay my respects. They were gathered around the covered grave. The Aunties, the cousins, his Mother and Father. Funerals in Hawaii attract dozens upon dozens of people. There wasn't much as far as tears, but the atmosphere was solemn. Me, I stood off to the side. Being in the midd...

Not Sleep Paralysis by 4d

There have been several instances where I and other family members have felt a pressure and inability to move while relaxing. There are three different stories I'd like to share that involved three different people, but the same location. About my family home. The west side of our home was exten...

Matriarch, Still Taking Care by 4d

It was hard to come to terms with the fact that my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. My family relied heavily on her, our leader. She struggled a couple of years before being hospitalized. My father stayed by her side the entire time she was there. In May of 2003 the cancer became too much of...

Ghost Bite On My Inner Thigh by ghostseer

I wasn't sure what went wrong, but I responded to a story on this site. I saw (second sight) what was going on AS I was responding to the writer, but it surprised me when I was bitten. This Demonic presence took a bite, and left. I always know I am on the right track, when I am attacked. It's al...

Orbs And Ectoplasm All Around Me by ghostseer

This is from my recent encounter at the "Gate To Nowhere". I wanted to talk about the "other" things I experienced there. I didn't mention them in my last published encounter. Just didn't have the time or inclination to do so... The orbs followed me everywhere. It started with just a few, maybe f...

Ghosts, Ghosts And More Ghosts by ghostseer

Talk about an active evening!, I finally went to the "Gate to Nowhere"...AT NIGHT!. I made sure not to go too late, and I got there around eight p.m. This environment is packed with paranormal activity. The interesting thing? I felt safer at night, than during the daytime visit. The last daytime ...

A Scary Ghost Appeared by ghostseer

He stood around seven feet tall. The eyes were nothing but black holes, but they had a kind of glow behind the darkness. It was last week, and I sat upon the cliffs overlooking shark bay. The sun had just set, and I saw someone walking upon the short sand beach below. There isn't much of a beach ...

Nightwalk by Nyieu

This is kind of like my other story because it was at my school again and it was another night walk. It's not horrifyingly scary but oh well. I hope you enjoy it. Okay so my friends and I are the officers of the Japanese club so for one social, we decided to hold a night walk at school. Every yea...

The Gate To Nowhere by ghostseer

I had been listening to the rumors for years. The story never seemed to waver from the urban legend. One day, I decided to investigate "The Gate To Nowhere "... It was easy to find, but it took a few visits before I understood. This is a portal to and from-otherworldly places. The Gate is locke...

Energy Balls Of Light Caught On Camera by ghostseer

It was an interesting evening. I didn't make it to the small boat harbor before it got dark, but it wasn't for trying. I had packed up the dog, and off we went. The drive to Poipu beach is only twelve minutes, but there is always so much to see along the way. Rain was coming, I could feel it in m...

A Grandmothers Yell by ghostseer

I had just spent two weeks in the hospital. More proof, God isn't done with me-yet. No one wants to spend time in the hospital, and certainly not someone with my gifts. There was no choice, I couldn't breathe. It turned out I had pneumonia, and the coughing wouldn't stop. I was drowning in liquid...

A Caretakers Anger by ghostseer

This happened on the Island of Kauai. I don't know why I went to investigate, but I kept feeling drawn to the location. The old Caretaker (? Not sure what the building is) Cottage is a dilapidated building, sitting in the middle of nowhere. There use to be electrical wires connected to a wood po...

A Plastic Bag Filled With Cow Bones by ghostseer

This was recent, just last week! I took my trusty sidekick "Faith"...on a walk around the heliport. I live around twelve minutes away, and it is a healthy three mile jaunt along a dirt trail. We were walking at a fast pace, and my dog was sniffing along the fence that borders the trail. This next...

Floating Above The Surgical Team by ghostseer

I was eleven years old when my appendix burst. It was the worst pain I had ever felt and I felt hot. The nausea would come in waves and my parents didn't understand what was happening to me. I was sick, really sick and no one seemed to take me seriously. When I started having seizures, my parents...

The Warriors Who Still Haunt Shark Bay by ghostseer

Port Allen is a 12-minute drive away from my house. It's one of the few places I can drive, and take my chihuahua terrier mix dog. After all, she is just under eleven pounds and an encounter with a large, unleashed dog is not a good idea. The Harbor includes a large cove overlooking an area they ...

Lost Child by Nyieu

About a couple of weeks ago at school, our science club was having a beginning of the year overnighter. I was really looking forward to this because I've heard many rumors that Moanalua High School was haunted. We went bowling until about 12:30 and when we came back, it was about 1:00 in the morning...

Grandma's House In Ewa Beach by Trizi_808

I'm 25 years old now, but I remember growing up in my grandma's house in old Ewa Beach. It was a typical 3bedroom house until they renovated it and it turned into a duplex house with 10 room, 2 living rooms, 2 kitchens, 3 1/2 baths (go figure) we lived there for about 13-14 years. I guess we should ...

A Friend Indeed by Trizi_808

I can still remember her name, Mary Grace. She became like an older sister to me in High school, she was 2 years older than I was but she always had my back. She was originally from the Philippines (this information, will come in handy later in the story). I remember for our secret Santa thing that ...

Sleep Paralysis And Ghost Experience? by smr0930

I am 19 years old and I've had about three PERSONAL experiences with sleep paralysis or ghost experiences. All within a months time and all happened about 6 weeks ago.

Sleep Paralysis Or Something More? by smr0930

I am 19 years old and I have had about three PERSONAL experiences with sleep paralysis or ghost experiences all within a month's time and all happened about 6 weeks ago. I have had many others which were not firsthand but I was there in the room when it happened. These occurred within the month's ti...

Crystal Clear Knocking by persephone

A couple of years back when I lived with my parents I used to hear knocking every-so-often in my room. I would be in there with the door closed doing whatever at the time. This would always happen when I was on my bed and would always sound like it was coming from the exact same spot. It was about 3...

Walking Soldier by tito412

One morning at about 0430 on my way to work I was running late and didn't want to miss morning muster. I live in military housing in Camp Stover which is located on post in Wheeler Army Air Field (one of the first places attacked on Dec. 7th 1941). It isn't unusual to see troops road march that e...

Old Hobby Shop Ghost by tito412

I'm in the military stationed on the NCTAMS PAC Communications base in Wahiawa Hawaii. I work for base police and one morning at about 0540 the base was completely quiet and pitch black. I decided to park over by the old hobby shop facing the base Fire Department. I was parked just hanging out li...

Haunting Babies at Mokapu by Excaliburhope

I used to live in Hawaii for about 9 months and I hear many stories about hauntings that take place there. Everything from Night Marchers (the ancestral dead) that walk the island to ghosts in the Pali. I had some strange experience while I was there and I would like to share one with you. In 200...

Not Alone in my Dreams by CFT

I don't know where to start... Does anyone else hear that sound? The one that seems to pull you into your dreams, electricity maybe... Like an eerie buzzing you feel and hear when you realize that your body is not falling asleep and is not in a normal dream state. I know this sound so well. I welcom...

My Experience with Demon Attacks by joelolo

One morning after a hard night of partying (before I became a Christian and learned how to deal with this), I awoke to the most horrible smell making me think that the sewer had backed up into my house. When I tried to move I could not! I tried to call for my brother but I could not speak either. I ...

Pele, the Hawaiian Goddess by sofakingdom808

Hi, my name is marissa and this happened on the big island of hawai'i. My parents and I were looking for our hotel late at night and were getting frustrated. Then, we saw this old lady sticking her thumb out on the side of the road. She looked innocent with her long, gray hair and wrinkled face so w...

The Vanishing Coffee Mug by GeeBee

After many years of being bed ridden because of a massive stroke that she suffered early in her life, my grandmother had mercifully passed on. Not long after, my grandfather gave me some items belonging to my grandmother, some of which were family heirlooms. The most valued item (because of its sent...
